Story
Help us raise this money -
these are your brothers and sisters and your children !!!
In the month of Ramadhan I ask you to find in your heart some love for your
brothers and sisters in Syria. Give and raise what you can be it zakat,
sadaqah or lilliah. And if you can't give then raise you hands and make
dua for them. This year we will all enjoying the nice food and
comfortable beds. Take some time to think of them, many without homes.
Remember the haidth Of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be on him)
"none of you truly believes until he loves for his brother what he
loves for himself". Let us be united in shooting the 50,000 arrows
together and help raise the £52, 000 + for Syria
In 2012, One Nation Archery raised £8,000 for Burma shooting a total of 4000 arrows (4 Archers)
In 2013, One Nation Archery Club raised £32,000 for Syria shooting a total of 10,000 arrows (10 Archers)
2014 – One Nation Archery with other Clubs want to smash the
£32,000 mark and want to shoot over 15,000 arrows. ONAC will have 15 archers shooting 1000 arrows each.
One Nation Archery Club is raising money to provide aid in Syria.
For you non archers out there, that's similar to 1000 20kg bench presses with no food
or water (and still be accurate enough to hit the target!), not an easy
feat by any means! But if our effort can help even one person then it's
worth it.
Please donate generously to this noble cause!
Alhamdulillah we aim again to do a similar project but this time with 15 brothers shooting 15,000 arrows in Ramadan (19th of July) in Luton and hope through the will of Allah to beat the £32,000 mark. We have also invited other archers around the country to take place – so in inshaAllah we will be shooting over the 15,000 arrows.
The Charity that we are supporting is Ummah Welfare Trust (UWT.org) who have done a fantastic job so far in aiding the refugees in Syria.
I have heard first hand stories where the group have seen our sisters in Homs resorting to eating dead animals as they can't go out because of snipers or the fear of getting rape.
They need our help, they are being prosecuted because they are Muslims like you and me. This Ramadan we will be having our nice beds and big meals and have our wives, husbands and children with us. Who and How will they break their fast with ?
Please take time to see a recent video – where advise is given to us of what our rights are towards our brothers and sisters around the world

“The Muslim Ummah is like one body. If the eye is in pain then the whole body is in pain and if the head is in pain then the whole body is in pain”
Please give your sadaqah, zakat, lilliah or on behalf of anyone.
Your reward will be Allah.
Let Us shoot the arrows you help us hit the mark.
